Width = 4ft

Length = 6ft

<u>Explanation: </u>

Let length = l ,

So, width = 2l-8

Perimeter of rectangle = 2x(length + width)

According to the question,

20ft = 2X(l + 2l-8)\\20ft = 2X(3l -8)\\ 10ft = 3l-8\\18ft = 3l \\ l = 6ft

Hence,

Width = 4ft

Length = 6ft

1. 4x - 8 + 2x + (-5x) + x^2 - 3 = 4x - 8 + 2x - 5x + x^2 - 3...now, we just combine like terms....lets group them...it will be easier ...x^2 + (4x + 2x - 5x ) - 8 - 3 = x^2 + x - 11

2. 2x + 5x = 8x

3. 2r + 4 + 3x - 2 = 3x + 2r + (4 - 2) = 3x + 2r + 2

4. 3x - 2y - x + 5y = (3x - x) + (5y - 2y) = 2x + 3y

5. 2y^2 - 8y^3 + 5y - 5y^2 + 4y^3 = (4y^3 - 8y^3) + (2y^2 - 5y^2) + 5y =
    -4y^3 - 3y^2 + 5y

sophie was 28 years old when daughter Nichole was born. In how many years will Sophie be two years less than still times Nichole
Kamila [148]
It will take 6 years for that to happen. 

You can find this by setting Nichole's age as x and Sophie's age as x + 28 since she will always be 28 years older. 

Now we are looking for a time that Sophie's age is equal to 2 less than 6 times Nichole's age. So we can set up the below equation. 

6(x) - 2 = x + 28
6x - 2 = x + 28
5x - 2 = 28
5x = 30
x = 6

This let's us know that it needs to be when Nichole is 6, which is 6 years in the future.
